Cures For A Broken Heart?

Even though it has been since June of last year since I last saw her I still get these terrible withdrawal symptoms and wonder what remedy others have used to get over not just someone you may have been simply infatuated with but head over heals in love. I am still amazed I fell in love with her as I had never been attracted to Asian women with the exception of finding some who have straight black silky hair aesthetically pleasing to look at (X had wavy hair).
Even before I could finally admit to myself that I was in love with her I tried to convince myself otherwise. And when I let her know the feelings I had for her she had a rather adverse reaction and started to completely avoid me. It's not as though I one day came out and said to her "I LOVE YOU!". I began with simple words of endearment.
And now she is gone. I believe she must has thought I was unintelligent because in my attempt to be spend as much time as possible with her I kept asking her for assistance on such trivial things. I think best to stop here as I could end-up writing endlessly about this. :(

go out with your friends and stop thinking about her is a good start. Keep yourself BUSY, don't allow yourself free time. Thats my advice.

the best cure is time and meeting another girl
i just got out of a relationship and 7 months later i met another girl and i was cured

eventhough things didn't work out with this new girl i met, i was pretty much cured
but i still do think about my ex on occasion

I guess either not too many forum members have had a broken heart or this is a subject not for public discussion. :frown:

Or I guess you can't read. You'll have to just get over it. We all do at some point.

Can't help you there, I don't think anything we say will make you feel better... Time, it will take time...

Try not to dwell on what could have been, although be sure to take some "me" time to analyze your feelings if need be. Time will heal it, in due couse. Until then, occupy yourself with friends, work/school, and going out in general. Do things you enjoy. Just remember, once you love someone, you never really stop. Don't try to push her out of your heart, just set a corner there for her and remember the times you had together.

Yeha I dealt with that for a while myself, having ended a 2 year relationship in July. I don't have another gf yet, but I tell you what really helped me not think about it so much. Definetely time heals, but when I came back to school in September, I just took advantage of this new freedom. NO longer tied down, able to talk to and flirt with girls that I wouldn't have in the past. Then the time will come (at least for me) when someone else just cathces your eye and ..... yowza! Each time you look at some other girl and say that to yourself, it makes you think that much less about the ex. Then when you experience the "thrill of the chase" again, you'll never look back. Thankfully I've been feeling that thrill, and haven't looked back. (unfortunately haven't actually gotten quite there yet to have "caught" one yet) .... btw I know those are cheesy analogies. Good luck man!

when that sorta thing happens, i usually don't eat much, don't sleep much, and work myself to oblivion. in about a week, i'll start sleeping more and eating more, but i'll keep working myself to oblivion for another couple of months. i don't suggest doing this... you're talking about doing like 80+ hours weeks and sleeping like 2-3 hours.

It's not easy, but look at it logically, she doesn't want to be with you. So, why would you want her? Stop communicating with her and move on, it's hard, but it's time to move on. Time heals all wounds and again, you'll find "love" when you least expect it.
